    I don't trust my diagnosis

    Rheumatologist says I have Fibro. i don't trust the diagnosis until I can have an MRI on my back (which no dr will give me a referral for!) I have severe arthritis in my TMJ's and displaced discs on both sides. My jaw and muscles feel 'crunchy' gritty and are very noisy. My spine is the same...

    Hi everyone. I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia 2 days ago. It feels unreal, but in a way... A relief. Doctors have brushed it off as me over exerting myself, picking up my son too much and all kinds of other stuff. I finally after a year of trying to find out what was wrong with me; I started...
